| How To Set As Group On Webull |
Step 1: Navigating to Your Watchlist – The Starting Point of Organization
The very first step on our journey to a perfectly grouped watchlist is, of course, finding your watchlist! Webull's interface is designed for ease of use, but sometimes a little guidance goes a long way.
Accessing Your Watchlist on the Webull Desktop Platform:
If you're using the Webull desktop application, you'll typically find your watchlists displayed prominently on the left-hand side or as a central panel. Look for tabs or sections labeled "Watchlist," "My Watchlist," or similar. You might have multiple watchlists already created, so make sure you're on the one you intend to organize.
Accessing Your Watchlist on the Webull Mobile App:
For those on the go, the Webull mobile app also makes accessing your watchlists straightforward.
-
Open the Webull app.
-
Look for the "Markets" tab at the bottom of your screen. Tap on it.
-
Once in the Markets section, you'll usually see your active watchlist displayed. If you have multiple watchlists, you can swipe left or right, or tap on the watchlist name at the top to select a different one.
Pro Tip: Before you start grouping, take a moment to consider the purpose of your groups. Are you creating groups for different sectors (e.g., "Tech Stocks," "Healthcare ETFs"), different investment strategies (e.g., "Growth Plays," "Dividend Stocks"), or perhaps even different risk levels? A little planning now will save you time later!
Step 2: Selecting Assets to Group – The Foundation of Your Categories
Now that you're comfortably situated within your desired watchlist, it's time to select the assets you want to include in your new group. This is where the magic begins!
Selecting Multiple Assets on Desktop:
QuickTip: Focus on one paragraph at a time.
-
Hover and Click: On the desktop platform, you can select multiple assets by holding down the
Ctrlkey (Windows) orCommandkey (Mac) and clicking on each stock, ETF, or crypto you wish to group. As you click, each selected item will typically be highlighted. -
Drag Selection: Sometimes, you can also click and drag your mouse to create a selection box over multiple assets. This is particularly useful if your desired group members are listed consecutively.
Selecting Multiple Assets on Mobile:
The mobile experience for multi-selection is a bit different but equally intuitive.
-
Tap and Hold: Find an asset you want to group. Tap and hold your finger on that asset for a second or two.
-
Enable Multi-Select: This action should activate a multi-selection mode, where checkboxes or circles appear next to each asset in your watchlist.
-
Tap to Select: Now, simply tap on the checkbox or circle next to every other asset you want to include in your group. Selected assets will usually have a filled-in checkbox or a distinct highlight.
Important Note: Ensure you have all the relevant assets selected before proceeding to the next step. If you miss one, don't worry, you can always add it to the group later!
Step 3: Initiating the "Set as Group" Function – Unlocking Organization
With your assets selected, it's time to tell Webull you want to organize them into a group. The location of this option might vary slightly depending on your platform (desktop vs. mobile) and the specific Webull version, but the general principle remains the same.
On the Desktop Platform:
-
Right-Click Power: Once your assets are selected, right-click anywhere within the highlighted selection.
-
Context Menu: A context menu will appear. Look for an option that says "Set as Group," "Add to Group," or something similar.
-
Click to Proceed: Click on that option to proceed.
On the Mobile App:
-
Look for Action Icons: After you've selected your assets (as described in Step 2 for mobile), look at the bottom or top of your screen. You should see a bar or set of icons that have appeared, indicating actions you can perform on the selected items.
-
Find the "Group" Icon: Typically, you'll find an icon that resembles a folder, multiple people, or a grouping symbol. It might also be labeled "Group," "Add to Group," or even an ellipsis (
...) leading to more options, where "Set as Group" would reside. -
Tap to Proceed: Tap on the appropriate icon or option.
Step 4: Naming Your Group – Giving Your Organization a Personality
This is a crucial step! Giving your group a clear, descriptive name will make it incredibly easy to identify and manage later on. Imagine having a dozen unnamed groups – that would defeat the purpose of organization!
The Naming Pop-up/Dialog Box:
QuickTip: If you skimmed, go back for detail.
After initiating the "Set as Group" function, Webull will typically present you with a pop-up window or a new screen where you can enter the name for your new group.
-
Enter a Descriptive Name: In the provided text field, type in the name of your group. Be as specific as you need to be. Examples include:
-
My Tech Giants
-
Q3 Dividend Watchlist
-
Emerging Market ETFs
-
High-Growth Small Caps
-
My Crypto Portfolio
-
-
Confirm/Save: Once you've entered the name, look for a "Confirm," "Save," "Create," or "OK" button. Click or tap on it to finalize the group creation.
Reminder: You can always rename your group later if your strategy or focus changes! Flexibility is key.
Step 5: Viewing and Managing Your Groups – The Fruits of Your Labor
Congratulations! You've successfully created a group on Webull. Now, let's explore how to view and manage these new organizational units.
 |
On the Desktop Platform:
Your newly created group will typically appear as a sub-heading or a collapsible section within your existing watchlist.
-
Collapsible Sections: You'll see the group name you just assigned, and often, a small arrow or icon next to it. Clicking on this will expand or collapse the group, showing or hiding its constituent assets.
-
Drag and Drop: You can often drag and drop assets from one group to another, or into an "ungrouped" section, to easily reclassify them.
-
Right-Click for Options: Right-clicking on a group name usually brings up options like "Rename Group," "Delete Group," or "Ungroup All."
On the Mobile App:
The mobile experience for group management is equally intuitive.
-
Group Headers: In your watchlist, you'll see your group names acting as headers, with the assets belonging to that group listed beneath them.
-
Expand/Collapse: Similar to desktop, there's usually an arrow or icon next to the group name that allows you to expand or collapse the group, making your watchlist cleaner when you only want to see certain categories.
-
Edit Group Options: To rename, delete, or modify a group on mobile, you usually need to tap and hold on the group name, or look for an "Edit" or "More Options" (
...) button next to the group header. This will bring up a menu with management options.
Adding More Assets to an Existing Group:
To add more assets to a group you've already created:
-
Select the new assets you want to add (using the multi-selection method from Step 2).
-
Initiate the "Set as Group" function (Step 3).
-
Instead of creating a new group, Webull will usually give you the option to "Add to an existing group." Select the desired group from the list.
Removing Assets from a Group:
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
To remove an asset from a group:
-
Select the asset within the group.
-
Look for an "Ungroup," "Remove from Group," or "Delete" option in the context menu (right-click on desktop) or action bar (mobile).
-
Alternatively, you might be able to drag the asset out of the group section on desktop.
Congratulations! You've now mastered the art of grouping assets on Webull. This seemingly simple feature can significantly enhance your trading experience by bringing clarity and order to your market monitoring.
